According to me Selenium is one of the best open source, free tool for testing web applications. It's quite powerful and gives you the facility to write down your test case in your favorite language ( from the plenty of languages it supports ). But it sucks when it comes to handle the dialogs. Dialog boxes are like ghosts to selenium, It can't even see them. That's because dialogs are native to the operating system you are running and selenium are designed to identify only web component. After searching too much on the Internet and other forums, I finally got the solution to all my problems. The solution is too simple.

If your  application  has a link or a button which opens a  new window , and you want to  perform  some action on the newly  opened window  though selenium, it's not that  hard to handle  if you have title, name or the variable associated with that window. However this is not the case always, sometime you don’t have name of the window or any variable associated with it, and you are not even able able to identify window using title, at the time selenium sucks to identify the window. However there are some alternative ways to resolve this (which might work, not sure). But before we see that let’s see  how to  select the windows that can be identified easily. Select window using SelectWindow API Title Name Variable Name (variable to which window is assigned) Inbuils APIs to retrieve Windows Names, Titles and IDs When SelectWindow API fails to Identify Window Select window using SelectWindow API Selenium provides the selectWindow API which takes any of the following arg
